Submission: Australian Energy Market Commission’s Power of Choice Review, Draft Report
In this submission, Consumer Action argues that the Australian Energy Market Commission (AEMC) has not adequately considered many of the practical implications of proceeding with its recommendations, particularly as to how consumers will respond to the changing, more complex energy market that the implementation of the recommendations will ultimately produce. While we welcome efforts by the AEMC to take steps to protect vulnerable consumers and to improve information provision to consumers, we believe much more policy work must be done to ensure consumers are able to effectively exercise choice and engage with the “options” that electricity markets will deliver.
